Film was generic and clunky at times but Clowns is something to enjoy during this Halloween lockdown. I'm surprised this wasn't on amazon prime actually. I wished there was more with the clowns but alas we receive a cliffhanger like no other. The script needed work and the story is weak, hardly any jump scares but maybe that was the intention.

An English Camp Blood!

Clowns has a cast of actors who are clearly passionate about what they are doing. The characters were developed and interactive, each one having his or her own personality and story. This was apparent as the actors interacted with us in very character-specific ways.
Honestly, I live for this movie and I'm not even sure why. It's lowest of budget, but there's just something about it that I find so very comforting. Better late than never, it's not at all hard for me to see why this has been so embraced by horror clown fans. Rides the line so perfectly in being referential, paying homage to Friday the 13th/The Burning/the genre of slasher itself and articulating itself modestly. Very watchable, very rural and very much a relic of it's time. There's a temperance to it that I very much respect. A certified classic.

Gone doggin'

As kids, people were taught that clowns are their friends, as they often saw them at birthday parties; but once those kids saw their first clown movie, they most likely had a change of heart. At a certain point, or maybe by accident, society changed the outlook people have on clowns and changed the picture into a much more sinister one. For decades, filmmakers have taken an innocent character and turned it into something audiences should be scared of. I went into this expecting to dread it as it looked like a typical clown-forest-horror movie, actually ended up liking it! It's not the greatest thing ever made, believe me, it has lots of problems! But, I still found myself enjoying this one for what it was! Lots of fun, cheesy gore and stupid characters making the cliché decisions. Kellyann Summers has fun with this role and it's obvious just by watching her performance. If this type of thing is your cup of tea, I say give it a watch or two!
Within the Woods

A group of people go camping in the woods and are hunted down by a psychotic killer clown. I say "camping" but this is not your traditional camp with cabins. It's a campground where you use tents. Given the budget for this, it's probably really just an unmarked place in the woods. Still, I've somehow been enjoying this trash for over a decade now. There's a decent amount of ridiculous looking gore as well as some super cheap cgi gore effects. The acting is hysterical with lots of running and screaming and arms flapping and flailing about from pretty much everyone. I'm sure that most of you reading this will find nothing appealing about my descriptions, BUT if you do find yourself intrigued then this was probably made for you like it was for me.
Is this film available to watch online?

Script was awful. Weighed all the qualities down with it.

I would've enjoyed this movie if it wasn't for the script. Very unimaginative and unoriginal, unlikable characters (especially the clowns themselves) and nothing made sense. It was quite obvious that nobody disagreed with with any of Tomb's scriptwriting flaws and they decided to go along with it despite the stupid plot-holes and confusing storyline. Hopefully this is a learning curve for Tomb as she clearly needs more advice on how to write.
Wished there was more

Saw this on YouTube and thought it was great! Wished it was a feature though as I felt the second act starts to become interesting. Excellent lighting (especially when 80% of the film takes place at night in the forest) I was thoroughly impressed by that part. I hope this gets made into a feature length film one day cause the premise was certainly interesting.
